Simplifying large-scale performance assurance deployments by Tier-1 service providers, Accedian has developed open, multi-vendor, programmable platforms that automate all aspects of performance assurance, from service activation testing (SAT) to workflow automation, to real-time performance results collection and reporting. The results are dramatic - operators will use Accedian solutions to assure performance at over 300,000 sites in 2014, an increase of 50% over 2013.

Reflecting Accedian’s solution portfolio, simplified product naming now underlines components’ adaptability to a wide range of solution formulations. The SkyLIGHT™ NFV & API architecture has also assumed a greater role as Network State+™ real-time QoS data is increasingly used by NMS, monitoring and SDN controllers from Cyan, SevOne, and many others.

Solutions are strengthened by a standards-based+ approach, where components interoperate with performance monitoring capabilities already integrated into many network elements, including mobile base stations and small cells from Ericsson, NSN, Samsung and more.
